  • Patent number: 12540576
    Abstract: Inner structure diffuser/OGV assemblies for gas turbine engines are disclosed herein. A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustion section, and a turbine section in a serial flow arrangement. The combustion section includes an outer casing and an inner structure assembly coupled to the outer casing. The inner structure assembly includes an outer radial support arm, an inner radial support arm, and a diffuser coupled between the outer radial support arm and the inner radial support arm.

  • Patent number: 12486126
    Abstract: A seal for a dock levelling system including a movable ramp arranged within a recess. The seal is for sealing a gap between a side of the movable ramp and a wall of the recess, and including a flexible strip formed of a flexible material, and on each longitudinal edge of the flexible strip, an attachment strip for attaching the flexible strip to the side of the movable ramp. The seal is arranged so that when the attachment strips are attached adjacently to each other to the side of the movable ramp, the material of the flexible strip between the attachment strips forms a closed loop extending out from the side of the movable ramp to the wall of the recess, to seal the gap between the side of the movable ramp and the wall of the recess.

  • Patent number: 12410606
    Abstract: An expansion joint for providing a rodent-proof barrier. The expansion joint comprises an elongate core formed of a resiliently deformable material, and a flexible sheath of a barrier material covering at least a part of the elongate portion of the elongate core. The elongate portion of the elongate core is compressible in a direction perpendicular to a line between the first and second ends of the elongate core, the elongate core being arranged to be compressed and inserted into a gap between first and second building structures, and to expand after insertion into the gap so that the expansion joint is held in place within the gap by friction between the surface of the flexible sheath and the surfaces of the first and second building structures.

  • Patent number: 11718817
    Abstract: Devices and methods for the efficient disaggregation of tissue samples, separating the tissue into individual intact cells or small aggregates of cells for analysis. A device may include a chamber to receive fluid and a tissue specimen containing more than one cell to be disaggregated. The chamber may include an opening and an agitator in fluid contact with the fluid and the tissue specimen. The agitator may include a micromotor which provides rotational motion to a shaft and an impeller fixed to the shaft such that the impeller and the shaft rotate together upon provision of the rotational motion by the micromotor. The device may include an electrical energy source electrically coupled to the micromotor to rotate the impeller sufficient to disaggregate the one or more individual cells from the tissue specimen and in a manner which does not lyse the one or more individual cells.
